Did you know that a baby will go through an average of 8,000 baby wipes just in their first year of life?Â
In the market for baby wipes? You may want to think twice before picking up a pack of traditional wipes at your local store. Many brands of baby wipes contain phenoxyethanol, a synthetic preservative that can harm your child's health.
If you're looking for safe and healthy alternatives to traditional baby wipes, read on!
What is Phenoxyethanol?
Phenoxyethanol is a clear, colorless liquid with a light floral scent. It's used as a preservative in cosmetics and skincare products, including baby wipes.Â
If you're concerned about the potential effects of phenoxyethanol on your child's skin, talk to your pediatrician or dermatologist. They can help you choose the best product for your child's needs.
The Dangers of Phenoxyethanol
While phenoxyethanol is considered safe by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR), some studies have shown that it can be harmful when absorbed through the skin.Â
Phenoxyethanol has also been linked to allergic reactions. Some people may experience contact dermatitis, hives, or other skin irritation after using products containing phenoxyethanol. In severe cases, it may even cause difficulty breathing.
If you are concerned about the potential risks of phenoxyethanol, there are many alternatives to conventional baby wipes that do not contain this harmful chemical. Plenty of brands now offer wipes without phenoxyethanol, so you should have no trouble finding ones that meet your needs.
